We hold these things to be true. First, do what you love. Second, the eyes may be the windows to the soul, but a good lyric will strip it bare. Finally, Austin attracts unique voices the way a summer barbeque attracts good friends. At Austin Songwriter we love what we do, and what we do is finding, enjoying and celebrating amazing songwriters.

Every week, through profiles, playlists and interviews, we introduce you to new songwriters. We reveal the soul of their work, the essence of their message, the “One True Thing” that guides their vision. We bird-dog the nooks and creases to bring you the special moments in live music, the best of the up-and-comers, the pulse and beat of the streets of Austin.
